Patient's question:
I have a prostatic cyst, it has been there for a long time. Two months ago, I had one treatment, and now it has recurred. It hurts and swells again now. How should prostatic cysts be treated better?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons that can lead to prostatic cysts, some of which are congenital, while others are acquired. There are also various types, including inflammatory ones and developmental disorders, among others.If the cyst is small, conservative treatment can be considered for prostatic cysts. However, if the cyst is large and causes compression symptoms, it is important to avoid spicy foods, excessive thirst, and insufficient water intake, as it can lead to dehydration and hinder the flushing effect on the urinary tract. Therefore, it is necessary to drink water in moderation, completely avoid alcohol, avoid overexertion to prevent the consumption of qi, and avoid sitting for long periods, holding back urine, and exposure to cold. Additionally, it is recommended to regularly participate in physical and cultural activities, as well as practice Qigong exercises.
